bought my 84 STi V1 4 months ago and on the clock was 108500......and the seller advised me that the dial was in Mph but the clock was still in Km, and showed me receipts of clock changes.

As he was a Scoobynet member I trusted him and went ahead with the sale. I assumed that as it was in Km it only had around 60k - 70k miles.....not too bad I thought for a 94.

Anyway, I put it up for sale today due to unforseen circumstances, and the viewer did a test with his GPS machine whilst test driving and found its still in miles!

So it looks like I have a STi with over 100k on it!

Is the speedo upto 110 mph or 180 mph ? if it has a 180 mph speedo then there is a convertor in the cable which means that the oddmeter will read miles , if the speedo reads 110 mph then the oddmeter will be in km's

The first mot should give you a rough idea to the kms when it was first imported. Then if it has been converted then the rest will be in miles.
